Answered Underwater Camera Recommendations

As a certified Dive Master, rescue diver, and salvage diver, I've worked with several instructors. The Dive Master diver has specific duties when working with students. Parents are welcome,....... but best relegated to sit by the pool sipping cocktails during lessons.
